About Us

Who are we?

Well, right now, it’s just me—Linda. I’m the owner, the sewer, the designer, and basically the person wearing all the hats for Achievement Repair and Gear. I’ve been part of the ultra and trail running community for over 15 years. I have a personal understanding of what runners need and what’s missing from the market.

I recently returned to school for my fashion design certificate. I’m finishing up by taking a few classes to help with the business. I plan to officially launching my business in 2026. I’m diiving into this new adventure, but before all of this, I spent 35 years as an occupational therapist, where I honed my ability to develop individualized functional solutions. Now, I’m bringing that same problem-solving mindset to gear and apparel.

I’m Linda, and I am actively building Achievement Repair and Gear.

Find me at local races and trail meet ups

I do custom work at reasonable prices that actually save you money. To give free estimates, consultations and and advice, I need to see the item you want me to work, so let’s coordinate. I meet my clients out on the trail, at races and meet up groups. The Events page shows the local races where I will be volunteering. Just note, if I am volunteering the runners come first. So email me to coordinate so I can give you the time you deserve.

You can contact me directly at achievementrandg@icloud.com

Find out more about the business

Visit the Achievement Repair and Gear page to find out about our mission, vision and values. The business is being build in real time. I’m finishing school right now, Spring 2026, and working on the steps needed to start the business. I’m learning how to build a website, which is still a work in progress. I will be adding more content and videos and pictures, as well as more products. I will have a better presence at races going forward too. I’ve got the sewing down, it’s turning everything into a business that I’m still working on. So keep checking back and leave a comment – it would be great to see something other than spam.
